Pregnant after IF

Re-Intro + fast fact: I puked on the sidewalk today!

Hi everyone... I left you guys 8 months ago when my DS was born. Well, I'm glad to re-join you again! We are expecting 2 little ones this coming august - 3 under 2 aka be careful what you wish for. Yesterday I had to say good by to my hot hot hot RE (I SWEAR he's gonna be my soul mate in another life ;) so that was sad. No more vagi-magics by Dr. Wonderful. Anyway, I am not the morning sickness type but today I got a good whiff of home heating oil being pumped into my apartment building, coupled with getting quasi-stuck in my elevator...I felt some on coming nausea and when I tried to talk myself down, I happen to watch a dog with massive diarrhea (sorry) which put me over the edge and I yakked on the sidewalk on the way to subway. Because this happened to me with my first, I was not phased. I wiped off my mouth, had a sip of my coffee then headed to the office. I thought, huh, time to join the PAIF board bc this shit is real. :)

    He's not conventionally hot by any means - maybe attractive - but I know there's something there. I SWEAR. I told him I was going to come to him every 16 months but this time I told him I'd see him in a few years... :(. I hope I bump into him again (post baby weight loss of course). Until then, my love...

  • Ha! Welcome back. You really haven't puked until you have puked on pavement. ;-)
  • @herecomesthsun @mjc1116 actually the only other time I puked was when I was preg with my son only it was on the doorstep of my favorite deli during morning rush hour after I just ordered a ton of food. I barely made it out of the door and somehow I was covered in it...I still had to go back inside to pay. I was mortified!!! This time I was very lady like about it :)
